Synopsis:
In the Li family of Li Jia Village, Xicheng County, the lame carpenter Old Li had a big, chubby daughter. Like her hunter mother, she was mute and spent all day drooling and babbling.
The barefoot doctor said the child might be an idiot.
That was until the silly girl went up the mountain and found a scholar who hugged her and sobbed, rambling nonsense such as, "I was born before you, yet you were born when I was already old."
Thinking him a fool, the silly girl dumped him back on the mountain.
The next day, the silly girl played with her father's explosives and accidentally blew up the outhouse.
Afraid that her father and mother would take turns beating her, she planned to run away from home. Instead, an old man blocked the entrance to her house, looking arrogant with his nose in the air.
"Get on your knees. This old man will allow you to become my disciple."
The silly girl raised a hand to ask him to wait a moment, then ran inside, grabbed her father's musket, and pointed it at the old man.
"Get on your knees and call me Mom."
That night, the old man kept muttering as if he'd been possessed: This is wrong. It shouldn't be...
On the third day, a wealthy family came to the village. Their young son stuffed a big bag of silver into the silly girl's hands. "Do you need a child husband?"
Huh?
But she already had a child husband?
[In her previous life, the female lead had a histrionic personality. She said whatever suited whoever she was talking to. She played her roles so convincingly that in this life, people saw right through her.]
[In her previous life, she and her first wife (child husband) had conflicting interests and a poor relationship. After the first wife died of illness, the male lead took his place.]
[As a child, she wasn't stupid or mute. She was simply imitating her mother because she thought it was cool.]
